A 29-year-old man suspected of fleeing from Arizona Department of Public Safety troopers remained hospitalized Monday after being injured during a police K-9 encounter.

According to Phoenix police, DPS requested help from the Phoenix Police Department on Sunday after a vehicle sped away from troopers during an attempted traffic stop on Interstate 17 near Union Hills Drive.

A police officer found the vehicle on the I-17 north access road. According to police, the driver tried to enter the freeway in the wrong direction, but police blocked the vehicle from entering, causing a collision.

The driver fled from the officer and a police K-9 later located the man hiding in a nearby neighborhood. Police also found his car at a nearby business complex.

Phoenix police had not publicly identified the suspected driver by Monday afternoon because he had yet to be booked into jail.
